Game of Thrones - Time Travel

Recently the concept of time travel has been introduced into "Game of Thrones". The time travel in this bit of fiction is my favorite kind of time travel. It's a closed time loop. Meaning whatever happens in the past has already happened. It's a fixed timeline. You are in the present and if you go back in time to do something technically you have already done it.

The Three-Eyed Raven said to Bran, "The past is already written. The ink is dry.".

The perfect example is Hodor. When Bran linked their minds across time it is something he had already done to Hodor hence why the whole time we have known the guy he was, well... Hodor.

This great video by VOX explains it way better than I do, plus you don't have to read which is a definite plus.
